Draft Position (1 Viewer)

I am in a 10 team non-PPR league that starts 1 QB, 1 RB, 2 WR, 2 Flex, 1 TE and 1 Def.  By virtue of winning the league last year, I have the option of selecting my draft position in a standard snake draft.  What do  you recommend as the optimum draft position based on current player rankings.  Thank you. 

 
It's all about personal preference.  If you have a guy you must have then take the lowest position you think you can still take him.  If you don't have anybody you must have go to bottom 2.  

I personally hate drafting in the middle.  Whenever I get stuck there it seems my draft is disjointed as I am just reacting all the time.  I can never bunch picks or plan an approach.  In a 10 team league I would want top 2 or bottom 2.  

 
I usually prefer to draft towards the back of the order. Maybe 8-9. For every reach my opponents make the more value falls to me, In Theory I can get two first rounders with my 1st 2 picks. 

 
10 teamer makes it tough. I'm more familiar with where the tiers are for 12 teamer. I'm the opposite of the other two answers but Gally's really experienced. I feel like you have more options for roster construction in the middle. 

At 1.04/5 you're choosing between Eckler, Jefferson, Chase

At 2.05/2.06 you've got Mixon/Lamb/Fournette/or Hill/Swift if either one of them drops. You could also go TE here if you like that construction. In a 10 teamer, I imagine Kelce/Andrews are very intriguing.

At 3.04/5 you've got Chubb/Pittman/Dionte/Pitts tier.

I don't know how 10 teamer shakes out but my sense is that with only 1 RB and in full PPR, you're going to want to get your RB early and hammer those WRs and get an elite TE. It's your league and you won last year so you probably already knew that 🤣

 
I like position 1.05. I have five players in my top tier (Taylor, CMC, Ekeler, Jefferson, Chase) and allows you to get one while drafting earlier in the second round.
